CM Punk Too Small To Face Lesnar? Posted by Andy Steven on 04/09/2012 at 04:13 PM
CM Punk has been mentioned as a potential opponent for Brock Lesnar but there is concern among WWE officials as to whether it would be an equal match-up due to their difference in size. Lesnar is seen as a beast whereas Punk is considered relatively skinny for a top level WWE Superstar. Furthermore, management wants Lesnars programs to be box office bonanzas and Punk is seen at best fifth in the pecking order, behind The Rock, John Cena, Triple H and Undertaker. There is also concern over Punks appearance backstage; he has been described as walking around looking like he just walked out of a car accident. Officials notice this as he often walks around backstage with a heat pack or an ice pack in tow and generally looks beaten and battered.
